I took a local high school angler that reached out to me to a local lake to help him prep for his regional tournament. Showed him a few "secret" things to make his trip memorable. The next generation helping the next generation.

This tournament was a difficult one to swallow but it was also an amazing chance to learn and grow being that I considered Russell my home lake. But at the same time I couldn’t be more content I had a great time on the water with my buddy Barrett, learned a lot, and got to hang out with a bunch of great people from the SUF school. I’m excited to apply what I learned and take on the next tournament!

Breaking in the custom made Barde Rod at Lake Russell during the retreat. First fish was a 17 1/2 spotted bass. Not bad, Thanks Barde.

Great SUF Retreat! Thanks Brian Latimer

William got him a good spot from the bank this evening. He had to break that new SUF sun shirt in!

Hey to everyone who could not make it. Just wanted to let y'all know that we are having a horrible time. Everyone is rude in person. Talked about fishing and how pointless and boring fishing is and just stared at each other... I'm just kidding. I wanted to make y'all feel better. The app members are going to have a lot of information from these guys when they can repost these sessions!

A few from today.

Brian Latimer this like the ones you catch!!!

8 fish now on day 2
